Training objectives
1. Systematically master the basic theory, knowledge and skills needed for a liberal science student, accept strict scientific thinking and experimental training, have a solid foundation in mathematics and astronomy, and have the ability to participate in international competition;
2. Master the basic theory and measurement technology of astronomy, have the practical working ability of preliminary scientific research, and have a broad understanding of the latest development of astronomy;
3. Strong data processing and computer application skills, and passed the provincial computer grade examination;
4. Proficient in English, having passed CET-4 and CET-6, being able to read foreign language books and periodicals of this major and similar majors smoothly, and being familiar with other methods of obtaining scientific and technological information such as literature retrieval and surfing the Internet.
Cultivation specifications and methods
1. There is only one astronomy major in the Astronomy Department. In the first and second grades, the students of astronomy department are included in the teaching plan of Nanjing University's Basic College, in order to cultivate broad-caliber compound scientific talents. From the third grade, I will study the corresponding courses of astronomy. Besides, I can take courses in different directions as needed, such as mathematics, mechanics or computer application. Students can graduate as long as they have completed certain credits.
2. Excellent students can be equipped with an instructor to guide students' thinking and learning and carry out some scientific research work. After grade three, most students can go to various observatories for scientific research and practice. Senior students can design their own early scientific research and training programs and apply to the Department of Astronomy, which will give them financial support after approval. Starting from the third grade, students with excellent grades can get scholarships from the department (covering more than 50%). Excellent students can recommend graduate students without examination (the proportion of less than 30 students is about 60%).
Curriculum system
The course system of astronomy department consists of four series:
1. general course-compulsory course for the whole school, requiring more than 49 credits;
2. The core course of the discipline-astronomy and related disciplines requires more than 58 credits;
3. The general courses for restricted majors must be completed at least 2 1 credit;
4. Cultural quality course 14 credits, other elective courses 13 credits. 155 total credits must be completed before graduation; And participate in early scientific research training and a graduation thesis.
